This way I will have ammo ready to go when I get the gun.

Again, you best chance of getting ammo ahead of the gun that will most likely work in anything is CCI MiniMag. You very well may find many, or even most other brands will work just fine. 22 rimfire handguns can be a bit picky about what ammo works well, or is most accurate. I say can be because many will digest about anything you put in them.

I use CCI Mini-Mags and Federal bulk packs. No misfires ever.

Some semi autos require HV ammo. P22 for one states it in the manual.

I am thinking about shooting my Ruger MkII at the Chester, NH pin match on 28Oct2017. No recoil!

Just a tidbit of stuff I know of crime. CCI was the choice of Sirhan Sirhan.

Can't miss with CCI. I'd run a couple of hundred rounds through, then try some other stuff.

Just bought a sweet Mark IV 22/45. Took it to the range with 4 boxes of different manufacturer's product. Ran a couple of mags of each through it, then started mixing it up. Weaknesses will show up eventually.

For me, WWB seems useless. I haven't had any trouble with it in 9mm or any other caliber, but the 22lr makes my Colt Rail gun into a single-shot.

You all gave some things to think about. Looks like CCI is pretty popular. I will still give other manufacturers a try and see how they shoot.
